Cristian Pomohaci and drug traffickers detained in Romanian criminal investigations
Authorities in Romania have launched two major criminal investigations involving child pornography and international drug trafficking.
In the first case, DIICOT and Mureș police have detained former priest Cristian Pomohaci and a 31-year-old man. Investigators allege Pomohaci produced over 60 explicit photo and video files involving minors between July 2017 and June 2026. Upon searching three mobile devices, police discovered 286 explicit files. Prosecutors claim Pomohaci distributed over 30 of these files dozens of times via online applications. The Mureș Tribunal has ordered 30-day preventive detention for both suspects.
In a separate case, DIICOT Brașov has arrested a 42-year-old Romanian man and a 47-year-old Spanish citizen for international drug trafficking. The suspects are accused of smuggling two kilograms of cocaine from Spain to Romania. The Romanian national allegedly arranged for the Spanish citizen to transport the drugs by land, arriving in Gilău, Cluj county. The Romanian suspect was caught in flagrante in Florești while attempting to sell the cocaine for 67,000 euros. Both men have been placed in 30-day preventive detention.
